One of Cambridge’s weirdest road features has come in for some criticism – not from residents or councillors, but from Jeremy Clarkson.

In the final episode of the Grand Tour, a motoring programme hosted by Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond, the hosts mocked the so-called “ghost-roundabout” in Cambridge, claiming it was not an efficient use of tax payer’s money.

As previously reported in the News, the road feature disguises a junction in Tenison Road as a roundabout. Road planners say this is to “confuse” drivers and encourage them to slow down as they approach the junction.

In the episode, Mr Clarkson said: "I have a photograph here of Britain's idea of infrastrucure investment. This is in Cambridge. It’s a T-Junction that they have designed for reasons known only to themselves to look like a roundabout."

Resident and traffic campaigner, Nicky Massey, said her ears “pricked up” when she heard Cambridge mentioned on the television, but noted that the traffic feature did have some fans in the area, despite its drawbacks.
